I heard these components, and they are nothing remarkable as far as Audiophile quality sound. At the prices they charge, they are truly laughable.

DOn't get me wrong I heard some $68k Acapella Speakers that seemed to sound like they may have actually been worth the money.

  I'm not a horn guy at any price. Not my cup of tea.
  
  Which model amp is $185k?

    • I think it's around $100,000. You can ask Mike or Neli at Audio Federation - Frihed89 10:27:45 11/02/09 (2)

      Audio Note is certainly a lightning rod for contrasting opinions. I am cursed economically by how good the music sounds to me. You are blessed for the opposite reason. Look at it that way.

        Just to show the 'people back home'.

        But really, what's the difference $100K or $185K ?? both are outlandish for a stereo amplifier.
